Fibrous cellulite: cellulite that is hard to the touch, easily rolled under the fingers. The skin is dented, slightly purple and painful when pinched and the "orange peel skin" effect is visible without pinching.
The cellulite is deeper, particularly compact, generally old, and very difficult to shift.

Adipose cellulite: cellulite that is soft and not painful when pinched. It is found on the hips and jodhpur thighs. This cellulite is caused by excess fat in the diet, and a lack of physical activity.

Oedematous cellulite: cellulite that is supple to the touch. The "orange peel skin" is slightly visible without pinching, the relief of the skin is somewhat dented and it provokes the feeling of heavy legs.
This type of cellulite is generally due to circulation problems and a sedentary lifestyle.
